I guess Rodgers will have to come back for one more.
I hope he rides off into the sunset after this game. Not being snarkey, just think a win, 3 TD game, 500th career TD, and most likely your last one being thrown to Adams would be a nice, storybook way for him to end his career.
Correction: 4 TD's now, up to 503 career, Breece Hall now has caught his latest TD.

He still throws the ball. I believe his (and Cousin's) surgery affected their play this year.
Definitely, the injury he had last year has given him some long term physical effects. If he was younger, it probably wouldn't be as bad.

That card looks like it could score a 10. Edges and corners are clean and the centering is perfect which on older baseball cards was rare. Clarity looks good too. A lot of my old cards were rather "fuzxy" in clarity. That dropped their value a lot.

I wrote an article on where Rodgers could play in 2025, if y'all would like to check it out. I don't write for anyone, but I'd like to someday so I'm practicing. Constructive criticism and Rodgers thoughts both appreciated!

Where Could Aaron Rodgers Play in 2025? By Ben Riches | February 9, 2025 On Sunday, the Jets informed Aaron Rodgers that they would not be retaining him for the 2025 season. As Jay Glazer reported for Fox Sports, “all signs point to him continuing to play”, given that Rodgers flew to New York t...
You could just seem him going to the Vikings. Go ahead, he won't take them all the way either.
The 49ers were his favorite team growing up, that might concern me.
Personally, if I were him, I'd just retire.

Sounds like the Jets followed what I stated a few months ago. Wanted him back, but basically come to mandatory meetings and no media appearances. Given they are moving on assume Rodgers didn't want to.
I agree. If he keeps playing, most people are going to remember the complete failure of his time with the Jets, and probably whatever he does next. He is full of himself, but is certainly among the top 5 QBs to play the game. Better that he go out with at least a memorable last game, including passing the 500 TD pass mark. Along with his other HOF accomplishments, that's a big deal.
It's probably best for him and his legacy to hang it up now. His arm and wits are as sharp as ever, but he can't produce outside the pocket on the run, where he arguably played his best football.
Call it a day Rodgers. Become a part of McAfee's cast, or hang out with the Jeopardy audience. You might find some happiness if you look hard enough. You deserve it, we all do. And thanks for the terrific years you gave us as a Packer.

Looking at the picture, just at his face, it doesn't look like Rodgers, well not to me. I get that this was 20 plus years ago. It's still a fabulous collectors item.
What is familiar is how he is holding the ball, right up against the earhole on his helmet. That's how he played at Cal, and what made me initially believe he wouldn't make it in the NFL.
Well I'm happy to be wrong on all counts. He got some very good coaching about how to play QB in the NFL, the rest is (almost) history. I'm not a huge fan of his antics, but imo he was the best QB in GB franchise history - better than Favre and that's saying a lot. I look forward to seeing his name and number inside the Lambeau HOF ring.

If I were Rodgers I would take a good long look at what the Jets are doing. If he thinks they have fixed the O line and that they have a great defense. I'd stay and play. Or go to a team that he truly thinks can win now. Or hang em up.

If the stories out there are true that they gave him a set of requirements and he wasn't interested then I think that decision was already made for him and they are moving on.

AR is going to take a long look at the Niners and Rams. He wants to go west. If Stafford retires, the WR talent in LA would be enticing. I'd hate to see Rodgers with the Niners. He might still be able to put them over the top because he's probably better than Purdy who's coming off a season marred by some injuries. To make it work without too much consternation, Purdy would have to be unable to go next September. Minus those two potential outcomes, I seriously doubt Rodgers would play for the Giants, Jags or Raiders and hang it up. Those are all rebuilding projects.

Opinions are like A-holes, we all have one.
From what I have read, the Jets are moving on from Rodgers, so I don't think Rodgers really has much of a say in this. Why are they moving on? New coach, new GM and the $35M roster bonus that Rodgers would get if on the roster.
No matter what though, I am guessing that Rodgers will paint himself as the victim, lick his wounds and take his act to another team. He's a perfect fit for the Cleveland Browns Organization.

I get the impression that the 9rs are going to pay Purdy this year

I predict you will be correct.

Amazing really how Purdy was the final pick in the 2022 draft, making him "Mr. Irrelevant" and just 3 short years later, he could become one of the highest paid player in the NFL. Also, it should be noted that the final year of Purdy's rookie contract has been escalated, using the PPE(Proven Player Escalator) clause, Brock got a "small" $4.5M raise for 2025.
Honestly, if I am a 49'ers fan, I am nervous about giving Purdy a big contract. Then again, I felt the same about Jordan Love. I just don't understand why teams feel the need to rush into signing these huge contracts, when they already have the player under contract for another season. Much like Jordan Love, I would hardly call Purdy a proven QB. As a matter of fact, his first half stats, when a lot of plays have been scripted are pretty good, but get him into the 2nd half and he is average at best.
I hope the 49'ers resign him, give him a massive deal and then figure out that his contract is a big old anchor when it comes to having cap flexibility to sign other big money players.
